J.T. Realmuto has quiet day at the plate

J.T. Realmuto went 1-for-4 with an RBI in the Phillies' 5-1 victory over the Nationals.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite contributing to the win, Realmuto's performance was less than stellar, marked by a pair of strikeouts and minimal impact on the basepaths. His season batting average now sits at .253, which, coupled with a modest .304 wOBA, suggests that his offensive contributions are somewhat limited this year. Fantasy managers should consider Realmuto a lower-tier option at catcher, primarily valuable in deeper leagues or formats that heavily reward defensive aspects of the game. His power numbers have been decent, but his overall production might not justify a starting spot in shallower fantasy lineups.
